Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) definition - medical term
Aspirin is a good example of a tradename
that has entered into the language. Aspirin was once the Bayer trademark for acetylsalicylic
acid.
On Aug. 10, 1897 young Bayer researcher, Felix Hoffman, first synthesized acetylsalicylic
acid.
Bayer registered the trademark "aspirin" on March 6, 1899. One hundred years
later to the day, Bayer celebrated the event by turning its company headquarters
into the world's largest pillbox. With over 200,000 square feet of cloth hung from
scaffolding by 50 mountain climbers, Bayer transformed its 400-foot tall building
in Leverkusen, Germany into one very large Bayer aspirin carton.
